Choosing
i89 vs i93 vs ViLi i100
Three rovers, three genuinely different jobs. This is the question we get asked most, so here is the honest answer rather than a spec dump.
| Model | i89 | i93 | ViLi i100 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Best at | Smallest, IP68, −40 °C | The connected workhorse | Works without satellites |
| Channels | 1,408 | 1,000+ | 1,892 |
| RTK horizontal | 8 mm + 1 ppm | ~0.8 cm + 1 ppm | 8 mm + 1 ppm |
| Tilt | 3 cm to 60° | Calibration-free | 0° to 60° |
| Radio / base | UHF transmit + receive, base or rover | RTK / NTRIP over your CORS network | UHF receive only |
| Environmental | IP68, −40 °C, 2 m drop | IP-rated field body | IP67, IK08, −20 °C |
| Battery | 16.5 h rover | Long-run rover | 22 h rover, ~5 h LiDAR |
| Buy it when | Rough conditions, tight budgets on weight, and crews who want the same model to serve as either the base or the rover. | Daily production survey and construction layout on an existing CORS or NTRIP network. | Canopy, urban corridors, and anywhere the sky disappears. Also writes LAS point clouds with no post-processing. |

Software
What runs the hardware
LandStar
The field software on the controller. Point survey, stakeout, visual and tilt measurement, and CAD-ready output straight from the pole.
CoPre
Pre-processing for scanner and airborne data: trajectory solving, point-cloud generation, colourization, and airborne 3D modelling.
CoProcess
Production post-processing in Standard and Pro tiers, for classification, feature extraction, and deliverable preparation.
CGO2
Office software for GNSS baseline processing, network adjustment, and static and PPK workflows.

FAQ
Buying CHCNAV equipment
Is ScanSupply an authorized CHCNAV dealer?
Yes. ScanSupply is an authorized CHC Navigation dealer for Canada and the United States. That means genuine, brand-new equipment, full manufacturer warranty, and factory-backed support rather than grey-market imports.
Do you supply CHCNAV equipment in Canada?
Yes. ScanSupply supplies the CHC Navigation range across every Canadian province, including GNSS and RTK rovers, handheld SLAM scanners, mapping drones, and airborne LiDAR payloads. Tell us your workflow and region and we quote the configuration that fits it.
Do you supply CHCNAV equipment in the United States?
Yes. The same CHC Navigation range is supplied across the United States, quoted in USD, with the same genuine equipment and full manufacturer warranty. Tell us your correction network and deliverable and we configure against them.
What does CHCNAV make?
CHC Navigation is a global manufacturer of GNSS and RTK positioning hardware, 3D laser scanning and SLAM systems, mapping drones, and airborne LiDAR payloads, together with the LandStar field software and CoPre and CoProcess office software that run them.
How much does CHCNAV equipment cost?
Pricing is sent by quote. The final price depends on the accessories, software licences, and support included with the unit, so we send an itemized quote rather than one number. Most quotes go out within one business day.
Which CHCNAV rover should I buy, the i89, i93, or ViLi i100?
The i89 is the smallest and most rugged, survives IP68 and −40 °C, and can act as its own UHF base. The i93 is the everyday production workhorse for crews on an existing correction network. The ViLi i100 is the only one that keeps surveying when GNSS is unavailable, holding ±5 cm inside a 20 metre radius with no satellites at all.
Do CHCNAV receivers work with my existing controller and CORS network?
Yes. CHCNAV receivers work over standard RTK, NTRIP, and RTCM corrections on the CORS networks you already run, and output standard formats for your CAD, GIS, and survey software. We confirm compatibility with your specific setup before quoting.
Is the warranty valid in Canada and the United States?
Yes. Everything we supply is genuine, brand-new equipment carrying the full manufacturer warranty, serviced and supported across both countries.

Who you are dealing with
The people specifying your configuration have run this equipment on real sites, not just sold it. That is why a quote comes back with a recommendation and a reason, rather than a line item.
- Authorized CHC Navigation dealer for Canada and the United States.
- North American stock, so availability is a real answer and not a transatlantic guess.
- Every specification sourced. Where a figure is a manufacturer claim under their own test conditions, we say so.
